Stinging Insect Pest Control

Stinging insects are the most active throughout the summer and early fall, after the colonies have had the spring and early summer to grow. The most common stinging insects in the area we deal with include bees, wasps, hornets, carpenter bees and yellow jackets. Home and business owners first reaction when seeing these pests is to simply get rid of them, but a lot of stinging insects are misunderstood. For instance, the bee is a vital part of our ecosystem, helping to pollinate plants. The wasp eats other dangerous insects, such as spiders. More often than not, humans get stung simply out of defense, not attacks. Nonetheless, if you have a stinging insect infestation it is a good idea to call our professional pest control company to safely trap and remove the colony.

Stinging Insect Control Services

There are many safe methods exterminators use to trap and remove stinging insects, all dependent on the type of insect. Richmond Pest Control will use a variety of eco-friendly and safe methods to eliminate your stinging insect pest control problem in your home or business. Since bees are considered so valuable to the environment and are currently in danger we treat them with respect and do not exterminate. Instead, we extract the queen and move the nest to a more suitable environment. We use this same method for other colony insects, such as wasps and yellow jackets.  If you have a stinging insect pest problem on your property, call Richmond Pest Control today or visit our pest control FAQ page for more information on treatment methods.
